OR if you are doing a takeover of the OnProcessTrigger, ecaradec just added the ability to tell farr not to close -- you return a value of 1 from that event function. BUT BUT BUT -- i don't think ecaradec has made that new version of fscript public yet (1.6) so you need that first.

What I'm wondering about doing is showing the HTML window with a page generated by the plugin: is that process documented somewhere?

Would it be something as easy as:

Formatted for Javascript with the GeSHI Syntax Highlighter [copy or print]

FScript 1.8 is out.I added some functions to allow the use of autohotkey to build options user interfaces dialog. I find it really nice to build UI.The principle is to launch the settings executable, let the user change parameters and call PostMessage,0x400,0,0,,FScript/{pluginname} from the ahk script to tell FScript to reload plugins.

ecaradec is there any chance you could add the ability use an html file as the readme file. I tried using readme.html but its not being launched however readme.txt works fine.

I think this one is simple enough. I could fix it if you like. Or ecaradec, if you have time to at least build the DLL I could send you the changed code, it's only 3 lines. I won't integrate it into your git repository though (if I could, that is). Had a look at git and didn't like it . TortoiseSVN is soooo comfortable (and it looked like work on the 'TortoiseGIT' has been abandoned).

I've uploaded a version that fixes this bug to here (and named it 1.8.1). This version correctly launches the file specified with the readmestring variable when the user clicks the 'View Plugin Readme' button on the FARR Plugin Manager window.

To s.newave: please note that in your GooglePlus plugin you've specified GooglePlus.html as the readme file while the file actually installed with the plugin is called readme.html.

To ecaradec: the offer still stands. If you want I can send you the changed file to integrate it into your source repository.

On a related note does anyone know if its possible to use onReceiveKey() in normal mode? Per ecaredec's readme it works great in memo mode but i cant get it to work in normal result mode?

I think it's not an FScript problem. If I remember correctly I tried to use it as well (in list mode, with the native plugin interface) and it didn't work. I think it's meant to be used in memo mode only (likewise onIdleTime and the new triggermethod parameter in onSearchBegins). But don't take my word for it. (not sure if that's the correct expression now )

That's what i was afraid of. Hopefully when Mouser has some time he can look into expanding the hotkey functionality similar to what i mentioned in this post:

I would also imagine that you would need to add an option to specify the scope of the hotkey i.e. global or local. Local hotkeys would only work within FARR whereas global ones would work from anywhere. This could also be expanded to work with plugins similar to how a plugin alias file works. Plugins could then specify hotkeys in a hotkey file that only works within their plugins and have certain plugin specific functions. Keywords/variables could be created for certain actions that could be shared like aliases.

Would be great to give plugins some control over hotkeys that could be managed from the same ui as other hotkeys. This way users could change hotkeys to sort their needs.

Im making my way methodically through all of my programs now updating them with the most important new feature requests. Anything that plugin writers need will get top priority, so i'm happy to add this in the next couple of weeks.

As a native speaker of German I always have to remind myself that when you native English speaking guys say 'a couple' you usually mean two, while we German speakers more often use that expression as 'a few'. At least this is how my English colleagues use it

Related to that I'd like to put the plugin related feature requests I sent you a couple of, no I mean a few weeks ago up for public discussion. I'll do that in a separate topic however.

First of all: Thanks for FARR and FScript. I like controlling the PC with the keyboard - so this is a perfect tool

As a former programmer I like the idea of extending the functionality with Python scripts. I have been searching for a while for a reason to start learning Pyhton

So: I am new to FARR and Python and got stuck in the beginning.

What I tried to do: I converted the sample ruby-script to the Pyhton syntax. BUT: the plugin doesn't show up at all in the list of pluginsOR: the proberties of the plugin only contain strange characters like ??????? (see attachted screenshot)

You may be the first person actually using any other script language for Fscript besides javascript, and i'd LOVE to see this working.. so i hope ecaradec (FScript author) will check out this thread and help diagnose. Please don't give up!
